The Narcissist Cookbook
Practically Imperfect
[Intro]
1, 2, 3, 4
[Verse 1]
I don't like my teeth
My tired old eyes or my nose
Or my rapidly receding hairline
And that's just my face
Don't you get me started
On what I got stashed away under the bonnet
If this catalogue keeps exponentially growing
Soon it'll sink this little lifeboat I'm stranded on and
[Chorus]
Oh my god it's so easy to forget
To be a human being is to be a total mess
I love the flaws in others every day
But that's easy
The tricky part is learning how to love those things in me
Ba-dum-ba-ba-bum-ba
The tricky part is learning how to love thosе things in me
[Verse 2]
I wish I was braver
I wish I was smarter
I wish I was thinnеr
I wish I was stronger
I wish I could read a book cover to cover
I swear it was easier when I was younger
I wish I could touch you
Without getting nervous
Sing for the fun
Without needing a meaning or a purpose
[Chorus]
And oh my god it's so easy to forget
That to be a human being is to be a total mess (To be a total mess)
And I looked into the mirror and I almost smiled today
I am practically imperfect in every single way
And the tricky part is learning how to love those things in me
Ba-dum-ba-ba-bum-ba
The tricky part is learning how to love those things in me
